ARE you hungry for something new this December? Perhaps you’re yearning for a change of taste? Well good news Brunei, the Singapore Food Festival is back!
Royal Brunei Catering (RBC) told a press conference recently at the meeting room of the Ministry of Primary Resources and Tourism, that The Horizons Seafood Restaurant will once again be holding its ever-popular Singapore Food Festival in conjunction with the Brunei December Festival 2018.
RBC’s Acting Assistant Manager (Marketing and Customer Service) Dayangku Hajah Maria Fadhilla binti Pengiran Haji Abdul Rahman and Marketing and Public Relations Executive Mohamad Naqiuddin bin Haji Mohamad Zaini were present at the press conference.
Held in partnership with the Singapore High Commission in Brunei Darussalam, Singapore Tourism Board and Baiduri Bank Berhad, the festival will run from December 1 till December 16 and showcase over 80 authentic Singapore kampong-style dishes – including the all-time favourite chilli crab – as well as dishes prepared by Chef Maria from Hajah Maimunah Restaurant, an acclaimed Malay restaurant in Singapore.
RBC’s local chefs will work together with Chef Maria to design a selection of food stalls for The Horizons Seafood Restaurant, where they will present their own unique spin on authentic Singapore kampong-style cuisine with the aim of taking diners on a journey into the intricate world of Singaporean food.
Live stalls at the culinary showcase include a nyonya curry laksa stall, nasi lemak Singapore with sambal sotong stall, and Singapore Hainanese chicken rice stall, to name a few.
RBC Dining Privilege Card holders and Baiduri Bank credit card holders are entitled to a 10 per cent discount on the meals during the festival period.
A special cooking class will be held on Sunday, December 2 from 9am to 11am during Bandarku Ceria as well, exclusive to Baiduri credit card holders and limited to 10 participants.
Diners also stand a chance to win a number of amazing prizes during the festival period.
